1882 Liberty Head Nickel, Struck in Nickel
Judd-1680, PR65

1882 5C Liberty Head Five Cents, Judd-1680, Pollock-1882, Low R.6, PR65 PCGS. CAC. Ex: Simpson. The portrait of Liberty is identical to the adopted design of 1883, but here it is surrounded by UNITED STATES OF AMERICA instead of stars, and shows the date (1882) below. The border denticles are quite wide. The reverse features a wreath of corn and cotton encircling a large Roman numeral V. The motto E PLURIBUS UNUM is above. Struck in nickel with a plain edge. USPatterns.com suggests the surviving population numbers about two dozen pieces. This sharply detailed Gem example displays well-preserved surfaces with subtle highlights of bluish-gray and sea-green toning. Population: 7 in 65, 1 finer. CAC: 1 in 65, 0 finer (1/21).

Coin Index Numbers: (NGC ID# 2AK4, PCGS# 62085, Greysheet# 15045)
